Found myself liking A from the off. It isn't over-reaching. No, I really like it. Well crafted, well balanced, well performed.
Don't like the voice of B. It has a lot of notes, doesn't it? Makes me think they were paying for studio time by the quarter-hour so cram it all in while they could. Nope, don't like it.
Easy A

Tough call - both have a lot of intensity, but A is a bit cliche, and love the fuzztone that opens and closes B but it mostly gets by on manic energy - the band is pretty sloppy, particularly the drums.
B, I guess, for the guitar and for being new to me.

A's working against the poorness of the song,and that's a shame because there's quite a colourful 13th Floor Elevators thing going on with the instrumentation and psych sound affects. One of those where the band performance is better than the song deserves. B was just a very ugly noise and isn't garage anyway.

Psych morphing into heavy rock/metal. I suppose so. It's a section of this, really - starting at 0:56. Pure theft.

Yeah, but I was never that keen on that section of DG ( I like other parts of it).

Don't get me started on Balloon's Burning either! The rest of the album is great though.

Nothing memorable in this tie (well, in the whole Cup in this cathegory tbh) but A just edges it.
